AONA CNC Tube Punching and Cut-to-Length Line
This line combines servo feeding, programmed hole punching and cut-off. AONA offers configurations for round and square tubes and other sections with compatible tooling. For mounting members and frame components, the distance from the cut end to the first hole often determines fit-up. Each part family needs a defined die, reference face and starting position. Stored programmes help a shop return to a previous run after a changeover. Submit two representative drawings with different lengths and hole pitches. Request sample parts after the tool change and check the first and last parts of a run against the same drawing tolerance.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC punching · several tubes at once
AONA Fully Automatic CNC Tube Punching Machine
This automated line produces repeated hole patterns in metal tubes. The CNC sets positions along the stock. AONA offers feeding and punching equipment tailored to the production brief. In a long run, throughput depends on how stock enters the machine and how finished parts are collected. Machory shows a configuration that processes four tubes in parallel. The fixture and the number of positions need to match the actual section and hole pitch. Describe how stock is supplied, how many part types run in a shift and how punched parts are collected. Compare accepted tubes per complete cycle with loading included.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC punching · 70–120 strokes/min
AONA CNC Tube Punching Machine with Programmable Pitch
Servo feeding positions the tube for regularly or irregularly spaced holes. AONA describes CNC punching for round, square and rectangular sections with dies matched to the part. Consider this configuration when different products start from pre-cut blanks. Two mounting supports can use the same tube section with different hole counts and distances from the end. Stored programmes retain the layouts, while the die determines the hole shape. Run two hole patterns on the same stock during a trial. Measure the first and last hole positions, check repeatability after switching programmes and inspect the tube wall around each opening.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC punching · PVC and metal tubes
AONA CNC PVC Pipe Punching Machine
The PVC version uses CNC control to position holes and set their count. The die and pipe support need to match the plastic grade, outside diameter and wall thickness. On perforated pipes for air or water distribution, regular pitch is only one requirement. Edge quality and preservation of the pipe shape matter as well. Use the same PVC grade intended for production when comparing tooling and clamping proposals. Send a stock sample with the hole layout. Check hole diameter, pitch and pipe ovality on the trial piece. Inspect around the openings for visible stress whitening or cracks.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC punching · round tubes
AONA CNC Round Tube Punching Machine with Rotary Positioning
This CNC machine is configured for round tubes. For parts with holes at different angular positions, a rotary fixture can combine axial feed and rotation in one programme. A typical part has two opposing holes and a third at another point around the circumference. Define the angular datum, the axial position and the alignment required between opposite holes. The clamp and support need to suit the outside diameter and wall thickness. Request a sample covering every position on the drawing. Check the angular spacing and inspect the tube for ovality around the punched openings.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - Hydraulic punching · flatten, punch, cut
AONA Hydraulic Tube Punching and End Flattening Machine
This hydraulic machine punches tubes using interchangeable tooling. Machory shows an end-processing configuration that can flatten, punch and cut on one machine. A representative part is a tubular brace with a flattened mounting tab. Fit depends on the tab width, the hole centre and the orientation of the flattened section. Include the transition from the tube to the flat tab on the drawing so the tooling proposal reflects the finished part. Request a trial part that includes every required operation. Check fit-up and confirm which tools for flattening, punching and cut-off are supplied with the machine.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC angle line · 10–100 t

The line feeds and clamps steel angle, punches a programmed pattern and cuts the part to length. The programme defines the pitch, number of positions and feed for each part. Angle brackets and supports can have holes on one or both legs. Mark the datum edge, orientation and first hole from the end. AONA describes a back-pull option for holes close to the end, so identify that feature when comparing setups. Trial the shortest part and the part with the smallest hole-to-end clearance. Measure the hole positions on both legs and verify the overall length after cut-off.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - Hole punching + flanging · 25–80 t
AONA Pipe Hole Punching and Collar Forming Machine
This machine forms a raised collar around an opening in the pipe wall. The collar provides a mating surface for a branch in parts such as duct sections or tubular assemblies. The finished geometry depends on the opening diameter as well as the height and shape of the collar. Provide drawings of the main tube and the mating part so the supplier can match the tooling to the section, wall and material. Measure the inside diameter, height and uniformity of the formed collar. Test the branch fit around the full opening and ask for a sectioned sample if the remaining wall thickness in the formed area is critical.

AONA 4-Cylinder CNC Tube Punching and Cutting Machine
This line uses four hydraulic cylinders. Two perform punching and two handle cut-off. A servo feed positions the stock for the programmed sequence of operations. The cylinder count describes how the work is divided. The quoted fixtures and dies determine how many tubes run together, which hole shapes can be made and how close an operation can be to the cut end. Those details make it possible to compare competing configurations for the same part. Provide a drawing with the full hole pattern, part length and tolerances. Ask for the operation sequence and a measured cycle from feeding through to the finished cut piece.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC C-channel line · 10–100 t
AONA CNC C-Channel Punching Machine for Steel Profiles
The machine feeds and clamps a steel C-channel for programmed punching. Servo positioning sets the pitch and hole count for repeat parts used in support or racking systems. Profiles with the same external width can leave different tool clearances when they have return lips. Supply the full cross-section, profile orientation and hole map for the web or flanges. Pay particular attention to the hole nearest the end. Ask for a trial on the longest channel in the job. Check cumulative pitch error along the row of holes and verify alignment with the actual brackets or connectors.
Aona MachineryPrice on request - CNC profile punching · up to 120 holes/min
AONA CNC Punching Machine for Steel Channels and Angles
This hydraulic CNC machine uses servo feed to punch steel channels and angles. AONA describes options for stock up to 6 m, subject to the section and the order specification. For a shop with a mixed order book, switching between channels and angles is a key consideration. The different reference surfaces call for compatible guides and dies. A saved programme restores the hole pattern, while the setup must also restore the physical datum. Supply one representative drawing for each section. Time the changeover in a trial and check the first hole positions after restarting with the second section.
